I have 7" New Vaquero will this present a problem for drawing with almost an inch and a half sticking out of the holster?

I don't think it will be a problem. Wear it low like a gunfighter and it should clear easily. This is an excellent holster. Good heavy leather with heavy stitching. Most of the stuff in this price range is flimsy cheap stuff (even the Ruger one). I was absolutely delighted with the quality and the custom fit.

I just took a look at the rig, and the 4 3/4" comes to within a 3/4" of the end of the holster. I think your front sight will stick out and catch. Hope that helps!

My revolver has a 4 inch barrel and the holster has room to spare for it. I think that a 7.5 inch barrel might just fit.

I'd suggest not worrying about the holster. Get a holster you like and add it to the belt.

I have not had this problem with my holster. It's a little snug initially when the holster is brand new, but it loosens up fairly quickly and I have not had any issues.

I have it in a Kydex holster without any problems. Granted on my holster, they folded the Kydex over along the top so the crease left plenty of room.

Wherever you decide to wear it, you need to be able to draw from the holster within 2 seconds, wearing it in the small of your back will add valuable seconds to your draw time. Plus it leaves it vulnerable for others to come up behind you and draw it before you can. I would advise against it, but that is just my personal opinion.

Hello Ed, Mine is the model for the M&P; 45 standard belt holster it has a passive retention system so it fits snug right out of the bag it also has a tension adjustment screw just below the trigger guard cup so you can loosen or tighten it to your feel. Mine holds my pistol very snug but does not hamper my draw. Just remember to keep your finger out of the trigger guard when drawing your pistol until you are very well trained in your draw for safety. I hope this answers your question about the holster. I love mine. Don

The holster is snug as it is outside the belt. Never had an issue with it. Sure, wearing it inside the belt would make it tighter, but could hinder the draw.

I doubt that, it may be too long for this holster. check the length of the extended battery case and ensure it is not longer than 8 inches. 7.75in if you want some wiggle room

not really. if you wear it on your left, the impact handle will be facing forward - inconvenient to draw.

I have not had an issue with fit with any holster, either duty holster or off duty holster. All holsters I've come across have more than enough clearance for the small extra height in the sights

Yes...the clip is very robust. The only problem may be...with the thickness of jeans and a "good" leather belt. ..it may be difficult to draw.

Hi Fred, I think the 7.5 inch would be the best choice! I love the holster. Its a little squeaky becouse of the lether, but holds the gun well.

It should be ok. I use the same holster for both my 17 and 27. I have no issues with my draw regardless which one I'm carrying.

No, I guess that would be con about the case. May need to adapt to having to draw from holster

I read the comments in here and bought it for my 4" 686+. It fits so tight that you can't draw the gun without using another hand to hold it down. I don't know why other 686+ worked, but mine. I returned it.

Ah, yea it stick out a little. But you have a mid-size case or bigger you should be good. Had no problem with mine.
